Estrace Vaginal Cream

Description

The medication is approved to treat vaginal inflammation caused by thinning of the vaginal tissues, usually the result of low estrogen levels after menopause.

Estrace Vaginal Cream is used to treat certain symptoms of menopause such as dryness, burning, and itching of the vaginal area. Estrace Vaginal Cream also reduces urgency or irritation of urination.

Estrace Vaginal Cream is ideal for women whose main menopause symptoms are vaginal in nature, since using the cream (instead of taking the hormones by mouth) exposes the body to a lower dose of the hormones.

Recommendations

Follow the directions for using this medicine provided by your doctor. Use Estrace Vaginal Cream exactly as directed.

Estrace Vaginal Cream should be used at the lowest dose possible for your treatment only as long as needed.

Avoid using other vaginal products without your doctor's advice.

Precautions

Tell your doctor before using Estradiol Vaginal Cream, if:

you have any serious medical conditions including a bleeding or blood-clotting disorder, or a history of stroke;
you are pregnant.
